mount -t cd9660 /dev/worm0 /cdrom

The code in 2.2-stable still suffers from a problem with the newer
drives (CDD2660, HP6020i) where you gotta reload the medium after
unmounting, before you can do anything again with the drive.  Jean-
Marc recently fixed this in -current.  At least the removal of the
scsi_stop_unit() calls should migrate to 2.2-stable.
